“Tell me, what is it you plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?” — Mary Oliver
This piece is part of the Somewhere Between Wild & Precious series — a collection exploring the deconstruction of this much loved Mary Oliver quote.
At its centre, a tree form emerges, not painted in a traditional sense, but built through layers. Collaged, it sits over loose ink markings and instinctive lines, creating something that feels both rooted and unsettled. Something forming rather than fixed.
The surface holds traces of “wild text” — words that interrupt, overlap, and partially disappear. They are not meant to be read clearly, but felt. Like thoughts passing through. Like something trying to be said.
This is a piece about growth that isn’t neat.
About becoming that doesn’t follow a straight line.
About the kind of strength that exists quietly, even when things feel uncertain.
It is a reminder that you don’t need to have it all figured out to keep growing.

Created for those navigating change. This piece is an invitation to pause. To reconnect with the part of you that is still wild, still becoming.
Not a fixed meaning, but something to return to. Again and again.
*Please note due to the subtleness of the tones in the ink and paper. There may be a slight variation to the colours on your screen compared to in real life
